You probably already know this, but just in case you don't, as it sounds important:

Not all hot peppers are red. Some ripen gold, yellow, brown or purple; others are normally used at a green stage. Some sweet peppers are red. My guess is that you're reacting to the heat compounds (capsaicins), and that you would react to green (or other color) hot peppers and not to red sweet ones; but that's just a guess.
